BC guys in the Super Bowl

Congratulations to Chris Snee of the New York Giants and Dan Koppen of the New England Patriots. They will be representing OLine U in the biggest game of the year. Congratulations are also in order to Tom Coughlin. He's a Syracuse grad, yet we all know he's a BC guy at heart. I'll be rooting for the Giants. Although I am in Atlanta now, I spent my formative years a few exits north of the Meadowlands during the Parcells era. My passion for pro football has waned somewhat but old loyalties die hard. I would also like to see the injured Kiwi pick up a ring with a GMen win.


It should be an interesting time on campus...like a Red Sox-Yankee game in February.

And congrats to John K. Mara, Giants' owner, who was at B.C. during a couple of the same years my husband and I were.

I'm still pulling for the Pats, though.

I'm just glad that the Giants pulled off the victory despite Snee's holding penalty on the TO that got called back! Didn't want a good old BC boy to have to take the blame.

Too bad Kiwi's not able to play. Guess he'll still get the ring?

Hello Rita:

As much as I like Kiwi - and the NY Giants in most other settings - only the winners get the ring - and that would be the Patriots.
